pers69 Report post Posted January 25, 2013 Fastronaut - I will and hope others do as well. fusionTX - my dealer didn't seem to know much about the Energi (can't order - not yet approved) though I didn't really pump them for info except insofar as whether the movement for Energi's might mean or imply and movement in our Ti trim hybrids. He seemed fairly certain that they were on independent tracks. I hope he was wrong - but with Energi Ti trim orders being scheduled and regular hybrid Ti's stuck in the TBD of scheduling it doesn't seem he is. xo151 - so it seems. To the frustration of us all. I would consider the Energi myself if it were a bit less expensive. There are certainly much worse "problems" than a longer wait than desired for a beautiful new car.

fusionTX Report post Posted January 25, 2013 There are certainly much worse "problems" than a longer wait than desired for a beautiful new car.There are worse problems, but today I was driving home from work and was passed by a brand new platinum white fusion titanium with temporary plates. I've been averaging 41 MPG this tank on my 2007 TCH, but I had to step on it for a little while to keep my eyes on he Fusion :) Really made me wish I had mine.

wazzul Report post Posted January 25, 2013 (edited) I think the delay is obvious, there has got to be a shortage of the killer rims on the Hybrid Ti model... J/K I tried my dealer today, but they hadn't even given me the correct dealer and order number originally, so they weren't much help. It seems like updates usually come out on Thursday and Friday so I expect we'll either see more Energi's or some HyTi's tomorrow. Fingers crossed!

Fastronaut Report post Posted January 25, 2013 (edited) You can get an update on your order any day of the week by calling Ford Customer Care at (800) 334-4375. Have your Dealer and Order Numbers ready if you don't have a VIN yet. Edited January 25, 2013 by Fastronaut Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ibpress Report post Posted March 5, 2013 So I ordered a fully-loaded Hybrid Ti (except park assist) two weeks ago. My dealer told me that Ford will be delivering orders before stock. Anybody know the real truth. Also anybody know what Ford's hangup is? Not planning on waiting forever. Thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anybody know the real truth. Also anybody know what Ford's hangup is? Not planning on waiting forever. Thanks. Well I have seen several users here that now have a VIN and build date... and when looking at the SE Hybrid stock orders I don't see retail orders show up on Ford.com's dealer inventory search, only dealer stock and the orders in process will show status of 'dealer ordered'. So taking this observation and then looking at the online inventory of about a dozen dealers (including a local dealer who claims to be #2 volume in the country so they should surely have some stock orders I would think) and the only ones I've seen is at Magic City in Roanoke VA (covered on other threads) and a couple others in the USA, that makes me wonder what ratio is being selected for build between retail and stock orders. if there are a lot of stock orders in process I haven't seen them popping up during my checks of the Ford.com site, but then again that site hasn't exactly been what I'd call prompt on having the very latest info (how long did it take the B&P to show up?).

jeff_h Report post Posted March 9, 2013 (edited) To add to the above, I was looking around at random to see if I could find any dealer stock orders for Titanium Hybrid, figured there very well may be since there are now retail orders with VINs... this one may have been noted before, it shows a build date of Jan 15th... If you go onto the Ford site and do inventory search, if you input zip '43430' that dealer in Genoa OH will show that it is "not authorized to sell Fusion Hybrid"... so then go to zip '43420' and then click the extended inventory tab, and for me a Ruby Red with VIN 3FA6P0RU5DR171852 will show up, and the dealer that it was sold to is the same dealer that the site says is not authorized to sell Fusion Hybrid... go figure.
